  • Applications

    (+)-Endo-beta-bergamotene (CAS 15438-93-4) is a natural sesquiterpene applied in flavor and fragrance to deliver woody, green, citrus, and mildly peppery facets to perfumes, candles, cleaners, and beverages/confectionery; it serves as a top/middle-note modifier and a building block in bergamot, pepper, and tobacco accords; in aroma analytics it is used as a reference/internal standard and marker to identify, quantify, and quality-control essential oils and botanical extracts (e.g., citrus, pepper, ginger, tobacco); in chemical ecology and pest-control research, this compound functions as a semiochemical that mimics plant volatiles, helping recruit natural enemies or disrupt herbivore host-finding in research and IPM/monitoring trials; in organic synthesis, it provides a hydrophobic, chiral sesquiterpene scaffold for preparing derivatives (epoxides, alcohols, oxides, etc.) and as a substrate for studies of selective catalysis; it is also used as a reference in olfaction research, olfactory receptor screening, GC-MS/GC-FID calibration, and evaluation of aroma release/retention in materials; bioactivities such as antimicrobial or insect-deterrent effects are under preclinical investigation and are not intended for therapeutic use.
